Based on a novel by Su Tong (Raise the Red Lantern), this sprawling, multi-generational Chinese drama features impressive performances from Zhang Ziyi and Joan Chen. The story begins in 1930s Shanghai, where the aspiring movie star Mo (Zhang) begins a romance with a studio manager (Wen Jiang) who leaves her pregnant and abandoned. This tragedy is the first of a series of frustrated romances that play out over the course of five generations. Zhang and Chen both play multiple roles. "...gorgeously detailed and beautifully shot" (Twitch). In Mandarin with English subtitles.
